Q. The primary neurotransmitter at the neuromuscular junction is

AMUAMU 2015Neural Control and Coordination

Solution:

Acetylcholine is a common neurotransmitter present in the neuromuscular junctions, voluntary neural synapses. Cholinergic nerve fibres release it. It has excitatory effect to the skeletal muscles by depolarising it, causing a cascade that eventually results in muscle contraction.
